Preliminary Call for Paper for the 1st International Workshop on
QUALITY of PROTECTION - QoP 2005
Security Measurements and Metrics
http://dit.unitn.it/~qop/
Milano, Italy, Thu. 15 September 2005.
Affiliated with 10th European Symposium on Research in Computer Security
(ESORICS 2005) in Milano (12-14 Sep).
http://esorics05.dti.unimi.it
and the 11th IEEE International Software Metrics Symposium (METRICS
2005) in Como (19-22 Sep)
http://www.swmetrics.org/metrics2005
===========================================================================
WORKSHOP OVERVIEW
Information Security in Industry has matured in the last few decades.
Standards such as ISO17799, the Common Criteria, a number of
industrial certification and risk analysis methodologies have raised
the bar on what is considered a good security solution from a business
perspective.
Yet, if we compare Information Security with Networking or Empirical
Software Engineering we find a major difference. Networking research
has introduced concepts such as Quality of Service and Service Level
Agreements. Conferences and Journals are frequently devoted to
performance evaluation, QoS and SLAs. Empirical Software Engineering
has made similar advances. Notions such as software metrics and
measurements are well established. Processes to measure the quality
and reliability of software exist and are appreciated in industry.
Security looks different. Even a fairly sophisticated standard such as
ISO17799 has an intrinsically qualitative nature. Notions such as
Security Metrics, Quality of Protection (QoP) or Protection Level
Agreement (PLA) have surfaced in the literature but still have a
qualitative flavour. The "QoP field" in WS-Security is just a data
field to specify a cryptographic algorithm. Indeed, neither ISO17799
nor ISO15408 (the Common Criteria) addresses QoP sufficiently.
ISO17799 is a management standard, not directly concerned with the
actual quality of protection achieved; ISO15408 is instead a product
assessment standard and yet does not answer the question of how a
user of a product assessed by it can achieve a high QoP within his/her
operational environment. Both standards cover just one aspect of an
effective QoP and even the combination of both would not address the
aspect sufficiently. "Best practice" standards, such as the baseline
protection standard published by many government agencies, also belong
to the category of standards that are useful, but not sufficient, for
achieving a good QoP.
Security is different also in another respect. A very large proportion
of recorded security incidents has a non-IT cause. Hence, while the
networking and software communities may concentrate on technical
features (networks and software), security requires a much wider
notion of "system", including users, work processes, organisational
structures in addition to the IT infrastructure.
The QoP Workshop intends to discuss how security research can progress
towards a notion of Quality of Protection in Security comparable to
the notion of Quality of Service in Networking, Software Reliability,
or Software Measurements and Metrics in Empirical Software
Engineering.

Submission Deadline: May 1st, 2005
Notification of Acceptance: July 10th, 2005
Camera-ready versions due: July 24th, 2005
Panel and demo proposals due: August 1st, 2005
SCOPE
-----
Ad hoc networks are self-organising, wireless systems, formed by co-operating
nodes equiped with wireless interfaces. Communications among nodes which are
not directly reachable, are carried out through multihop paths. Their topology
is dynamic, decentralized and ever changing due to the arbritarily movement of
ad hoc nodes.
We are interested in work in progress, experimental and theoretical research
in Ad-hoc, Mobile and Wireless Networks. Topics of interest for which we are
soliciting papers include, but are not limited to, the following:
*Access control, scheduling
*Ad hoc and sensor networks
*Analytic methods and modelling for performance evaluation, optimization...
*Auto-configuration
*Incentives and pricing
*Location awareness, discovery, dependence, and management
*Mesh networks
*New applications
*Power management, power control, and energy-efficiency
*Quality-of-service, resource allocation, multimedia
*Routing (unicast, multicast, etc.)
*Security and privacy
*Service discovery
*Systems and testbeds
*Wireless Internet, and data management
PROCEEDINGS
-----------
The proceedings of Ad hoc Now 2005 will be published by Springer-Verlag, as
part of the Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LCNS) series. The best papers
with a clear algorithmic content will be selected for publication in a
special issue of the Journal of Discrete Algorithms.
PAPER SUBMISION INSTRUCTIONS
----------------------------
Authors should prepare a full paper not to exceed 14 pages in Springer Verlag
LNCS format. This page budget must contain all figures, tables, and references.
The paper should also include a brief abstract of up to 150 words, three
keywords, and full contact information for the corresponding author.
Submissions not in the appropriate format will be rejected without review.
All paper submissions will be handled electronically at the conference website.
PANELS AND DEMONSTRATIONS
-------------------------
Proposals for panels that examine controversial or otherwise provocative issues
are solicited. Panel proposals should not exceed 3 pages, including biographical
sketches of the panelists. Potential panel organizers should contact the Panel
Chair, S.S. Ravi (mailto:ravi@cs.albany.edu).
Proposals for demonstrations are solicited. Proposals should not exceed 3 pages

Scope
In its nineth year, the 2005 IEEE/ACM International Symposium on Distributed
Simulation and Real Time Applications (DS-RT 2005) will take place at
Hyatt Regency Montreal, Canada, in conjunction with the the 8th ACM
Int'l Symposium on Modeling, Analysis and Simulation of Wireless and
Mobile Systems (MSWiM 2005).
This is an excellent opportunity to participate in two conferences
covering a wide range of simulation research.
Symposium Objectives
DS-RT 2005 serves as a forum for simulationists from academia, industry

CALL FOR PARTICIPATION
2005 International Workshop
"World Class Events: Telecommunications Challenges"
WCE2005
University of Waterloo, Waterloo,
Ontario, Canada
6 May 2005
To be held in conjunction with '2005 IFIP Networking Conference'
http://www.cs.uwaterloo.ca/Networking2005
Throughout the telecommunications industry, organizing world class
events presents unique challenges and drives explosive changes in
service offerings, network infrastructures, and product technologies.
The host city’s or country’s reputation on being able to organize such
world class events may depend on the mastery of providing a "Perfect
Network".
This workshop is a unique gathering opportunity for select industry
executives, seasoned managers, expert researchers and senior subject
matter experts from sponsor organizations of world class events,
telecommunication companies, and government officials of host
cities/countries to discuss the requirements and steps necessary to
build and operate a "Perfect Network" for such events. They will share
experiences, plans, "do lists", and their vision to ensure a "Perfect
Network". An intense day of selected presentations and possible
refreshing panel discussions will focus on how to avoid "re-inventing
the wheel" every time that a city or country becomes a candidate/host
for such world class events.
Confirmed Key Speakers of the industrial track:
- Delivering an Olympic Class Network in 2010, Justin Webb, Vice
President Olympic Solutions, Bell Canada
- Telecommunication Challenges for the Olympic Games, Spilios Makris,
Director Olympic Program, Telcordia
- Telecommunications at the Athens 2004 Summer Olympics, Yiannis
Antoniadis, Olympic Games Telecommunications Command & Control Deputy
Manager, OTE
- World Class Events - Telecommunication Challenges, Alex Iliadis,
Athens 2004 Telecom Manager
Key speeches will be 45 minutes long plus 15 minutes for questions.
Please note that the industrial track is complemented by a research
track with papers presenting new research and development material.
Workshop Organizers:
Dr. Charalabos Skianis
Institute of Informatics and Telecommunications
National Center for Scientific Research ‘Demokritos’
Dr. Spilios Makris
Telcordia Technologies, Inc.
